  • Associations of ambient exposure to benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene with daily mortality

    Open AccessLu Zhou, Xiong Ying et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet Planetary Health2025

  • Global, regional, and national burden of mortality associated with non-optimal ambient temperatures from 2000 to 2019

    Open AccessQi Zhao, Yuming Guo et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet Planetary Health2021

    BACKGROUND: Exposure to cold or hot temperatures is associated with premature deaths. We aimed to evaluate the global, regional, and national mortality burden associated with non-optimal ambient temperatures. METHODS: In this modelling study, we collected time-series data on mortality and ambient temperatures from 750 locations in 43 countries and five meta-predictors at a grid size of 0·5° × 0·5° across the globe. A three-stage analysis strategy…

  • The burden of heat-related mortality attributable to recent human-induced climate change

    Open AccessAna M Vicedo‐Cabrera, Noah Scovronick et al.ARTICLENature Climate Change2021

    Climate change affects human health; however, there have been no large-scale, systematic efforts to quantify the heat-related human health impacts that have already occurred due to climate change. Here, we use empirical data from 732 locations in 43 countries to estimate the mortality burdens associated with the additional heat exposure that has resulted from recent human-induced warming, during the period 1991-2018. Across all study countries, w…

  • Quantifying excess deaths related to heatwaves under climate change scenarios

    Open AccessYuming Guo, Antonio Gasparrini et al.ARTICLEPLoS Medicine2018

    BACKGROUND: Heatwaves are a critical public health problem. There will be an increase in the frequency and severity of heatwaves under changing climate. However, evidence about the impacts of climate change on heatwave-related mortality at a global scale is limited. METHODS AND FINDINGS: We collected historical daily time series of mean temperature and mortality for all causes or nonexternal causes, in periods ranging from January 1, 1984, to Dec…

  • Heat Wave and Mortality

    Open AccessYuming Guo, Antonio Gasparrini et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Health Perspectives2017

    BACKGROUND: Few studies have examined variation in the associations between heat waves and mortality in an international context. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to systematically examine the impacts of heat waves on mortality with lag effects internationally. METHODS: We collected daily data of temperature and mortality from 400 communities in 18 countries/regions and defined 12 types of heat waves by combining community-specific daily mean temperature ≥90…
